Rounding Setting
shoppingcartsettings.roundpricesduringcalculation
UNSET  Ignore “limit per store” rules (sitewide)
DO YOU want to see products or caterory images on sub cat pages???   (eg CarShades)
http://nop43beta.ibridge.local/Admin/Setting/Catalog
Catalog pages  ->  Include products from subcategories
check media settings!!!!  so images get displayed correctly.
I left these at default this time BUT they are different to Azure 4.2 bob2
also NOTE address sequence not in UK format???
http://nop43beta.ibridge.local/Admin/Shipping/EditWarehouse/1
thats because Lukasz coded it in our BOB2 version.
states “Tick the Force SSL for all site Pages to enforce SSL for the entire site. This is useful only when you have SSL enabled on your store details pages.”
also turn on and test them in the store area  https://nop43beta.ibridge.local/Admin/Store/List
base http://nopcommerce.ibridge.local/ should now be ok.  not 100% sure still about the tax setup as i think only UK is correct
see http://docs.nopcommerce.com/display/en/EU+VAT+configuration+guide
WE MUST set   taxsettings.pricesincludetax  = FALSE   then its NET price entry in admin.
setting up standard tax & tax address country will ensure admin uses them to calc Gross prices etc
also on this screen further down.  Ensure shipping in admin is also NET
NOW see  /NOP data/setup-script-4.3-to-4.2-test-data.sql
must check country, VAT, default the correct country and currency

swap USA & UK display order  100, 1  respectively http://nop43beta.ibridge.local/Admin/Country/Edit/82

http://nop43beta.ibridge.local/Admin/Currency/List
edit currency GBP make it primary exchange rate & primary store rate then edit ro mark, published and exchange, rate 1 & display order 1
